The tumor-inducing capacity of Agrobacterium tumefaciens is located in large extrachromosomal plasmid called
1 Ti plasmid
2 At plasmid
3 Lambda phage
4 Plasmid pBR322
Explanation:
The tumor inducing (Ti) plasmid of Agrobacterium tumifaciens has now been modified into a cloning vector which is no more pathogenic to the plants but is still able to use the mechanisms to deliver genes of our interest into a variety of plants.

Select the correct answer i. Silencing of an unwanted gene - DNA polymerase ii. RNAi - Cellular defence
1 Only i is correct
2 Only ii is correct
3 Both are correct
4 None are correct
Explanation:
Silencing of an unwanted gene could be achieved through the use of RNA interfarence technique.

Genetically modified food is not desirable because
1 It may cause allergies
2 Could lead to antibiotic resistance in human beings
3 Disturbance metabolism
4 All of the above
Explanation:
(i) Allergies and toxicity may be caused (ii) Incorporation of antibiotic resistance in human beings (iii) Disturbance in metabolism due to enzyme for antibiotic resistance
